FIRST ON 3 UPDATE: Petrolino’s charges don’t affect her probation status … yet

WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH (WWAY) – The story about a 19-year-old woman who police say blacked out behind the wheel Tuesday morning while huffing dust cleaner … has sparked a lot of controversy.

Last week we showed you many of Randi Petrolino’s rap sheet highlights, which is about 10 pages long.

Among the citations and charges was a conviction for shoplifting. Afterwards, she was put on probation.

Some of you asked if the last week’s DWI charge violated that probation.

According to the Department of Community Corrections, one only violates probation if convicted of a charge. But even then the person might not go to jail. They could be placed under house arrest, ordered to seek treatment or face a number of other sanctions.
